Every great organization needs a leader. That's where Johnny comes in.

Harambree president Johnny Cardoza is the elected leader of the group and in charge of decisions that determine the whole groups future.

"My main role is scheduling performances and keeping the team together, getting them to practice, keeping a schedule, making sure the girls and guys are ready to dance and making sure their money doesn't go to waste," said Cardoza.

"We're here to dance and we're here to perform."

A four year Harambree veteran and almost two year executive board member Cordoza will be completing his first semester as president this December.

"We're still open to anyone choreographing and stuff like that," said Cardoza, "we're all about equal opportunity."

Cordoza has been around the organization long enough to have seen previous presidents and has his own vision for the future.

"I've seen Harambree change and evolve into an amazing group and in the future I hope we continue this tradition of keeping the creativity alive and staying original."

"We want to stay true to what Harambree means which is togetherness, family, and unity and just having fun at the end of the day."
